- XmFm - An X11/Motif File Manager
-
-
- Description:
- xmfm is a file manager that shows files as icons in panes.
- It divides the display of a directory into three areas,
- executable files, directories and ordinary files to distinguish
- between them. When a file is selected a range of actions can
- be performed on it. This is configurable on a per user basis.
- xmfm also allows arbitrary programs to be run from within it.
